Outbound QoS Interfaces

You configure outbound QoS (Basic) and outbound QoS (Advanced) interfaces in the Outbound QoS Interfaces page. For details about Outbound QoS Interfaces see the SteelHead Management Console User’s Guide for SteelHead CX.

Control	Description
WAN Bandwidth (kbps)	Specify its bandwidth link rate in kilobits per second. The bandwidth for the default site is automatically set to this value. Inbound QoS supports in-path interfaces only; it does not support primary or auxiliary interfaces. The link rate is the bottleneck WAN bandwidth, not the interface speed out of the WAN interface into the router or switch. For example, if your appliance connects to a router with a 100-Mbps link, do not specify this value—specify the actual WAN bandwidth (for example, T1 or T3). Different WAN interfaces can have different WAN bandwidths; you must enter the bandwidth link rate correctly for QoS to function properly.
Enable QoS on <interface>	Specify WAN link interfaces.

Control	Description
Enable QoS on <interface> with WAN bandwidth <kbps>	Specify WAN link interfaces and WAN bandwidth. Specify its bandwidth link rate in kilobits per second. The bandwidth for the default site is automatically set to this value. Inbound QoS supports in-path interfaces only; it does not support primary or auxiliary interfaces. The link rate is the bottleneck WAN bandwidth, not the interface speed out of the WAN interface into the router or switch.
